First of my (typically) overdue commissions from the "moving fund" I got in September! Sorry about the delay, guys! This is part 1 of 2, and part 2 is gonna be where most of the juiciest action happens.
This time it was Vinn's turn to be distracted, as he saw a set of glowing blue orbs on the other side of Dolus deep in the cave, followed by a series of a few dozen smaller ones. Dolus paused to look back at what Vinn was staring at as well, only to find himself enraptured by what he saw. When he looked back at Vinn, his eyes were the same color as the glowing orbs on the other side of the cave.
Vinn gulped deep, not sure what was going on, but he was fairly certain it wasn't good. Suddenly, Dolus pounced on the Lizard, glowy orange maw wrapping around his upper half, flattening his fin against the back of his neck. He instantly flailed about, shocked and surprised at the sudden aggression of his friend before managing to pry the dragon's teeth away from his chest and out from the bits of his fin, allowing him to fall back on his rump, strands of eager saliva drooling down his chest and connecting him to Dolus' maw. If not for the fact that the shift in eye luminosity, he'd have enjoyed the aggression, but something was different. Something wasn't right. "What the hell, Dolus, is that you?" He clicked his claws forward to get his friend's attention as his free hand wiped the drool off his chest.
Dolus shook his head and blinked a few times, the gentle glow dissipating with each subsequent squint. "w-what's going on?" He muttered, looking around the cave to re-identify his friend.
Before Vinn could reply, there was a deep hiss followed by a bunch of smaller, higher pitched hisses coming from the back of the cave. Dolus went to turn and look at the source of the sound, but Vinn lashed out at him, grabbing his cheeks and keeping him from looking back at the glowing blue orbs that were the apparent source of the hissing.
As the hissing got closer, a shadowy form emerged in the aura of the orange glow; a long, dark-scaled beast that was almost as long as the cave was from mouth to where it was. Both travelers caught a glimpse of a far larger creature than both of them combined. It was a naga female with dark jungle-green scales on her back, off-white belly scales, tiny snakes for hair, and a pair of luscious mounds on her chest. Her eyes were aglow with the sale pale aqua that had emerged from the darkness and had taken over Dolus.
"I think it's time to go." Vinn whispered to his dragon friend.
"Agreed." The two turned to dash out of the cave, self-assured that being out in the thrashing, shocking storm was safer than being in a cave with a hypnotic naga.
However, as soon as they turned, the naga lunged forward, bounding her upper body around the side of the cave's rocky walls to land between them and the exit, her glowing eyes - both hers and the eyes of the tiny snakes that lined her skull - all aimed directly at Dolus.
He tried to resist by closing his eyes and turning away, but the naga's tail tip lashed around behind him to whip at his rump, making him gasp in surprise and pain.
Vinn tried to use the distraction to attack the snake with his foot-claws, but the naga was just too large and too powerful to let a few idle scratches on her sides stop her.
"Foolish morsels! Don't dare try to resissssst me!" her voice was melodic, almost like a siren or bard with the chorus of gentle hissing coming from the snake-tendrils. "Now now, I think you'll find it just makes things worse to fight, my delectable treats." She flicked her tongue and leaned in close to Vinn, eyes glowing the same aqua.
The rebellious lizard laughed and stared right back at her before reaching out to try and grab at one of her tendrils, unphased by her hypnotic glare. Vinn knew her to be a gorgon - one with the power to petrify and/or control others. Luckily, his time with other naga had taught him a thing or two about resisting the wiles and charms of a deadly viper.
His aggression made her pull back, a large portion of her body slamming into Dolus to make him fall on top of Vinn, barely missing the glowing ball of magma they'd left earlier. They tumbled over one another before finally coming to their senses only to see themselves completely surrounded by her coils on all sides. It was clear there was nowhere to run, so they'd have to fight.
"Well, this is it, eh Dolus?" Vinn mused as he elbowed at his friend playfully. When no answer came, he turned to see if the dragon was okay, only to see that his eyes were glowing the same luminous aqua that the snake's had been. "Uh on..." He caught a glimpse of the snake's tail coiling up in circles around Dolus' tail and rubbing at his slit, the deep orange glow highlighting the glistening shaft of his friend. Despite being in a rather unpleasant situation, Vinn couldn't help but crack a nervous joke. "I know your type likes to make their victims hard, but I always thought that was referring to turning them to stone."
"My type, dear? No, my name is Belinda, not like it matters for you. Get him!" She commanded Dolus as she taunted Vinn.
The dragon lunged at his friend, unable to control himself. Vinn was expecting such a brash and straightforward attack, so he managed to dodge to the side, roll between the dragon's legs (shoulder brushing on the slick member that hung there), and hopped up onto Belinda's body only to have another coil of her jerk upwards and slam him in the chest and knock him to the ground.
Dolus got to his senses and attacked as the naga''s body got tied up in knots around the both of them, Vinn dodging and rolling around to avoid her tail and the dragon's body. He saw an opening between his hypnotized friend and the serpentine aggressor, so he dove forward, only to have her powerful torso swing to the side, slamming him into the cave wall, disorienting him just enough and just long enough that the dragon was able to leap up and catch him, head first, in his powerful, moistened jaws.
"MRRRPGNHPH!" Vinn cried out into Dolus' skull, legs flailing and tail thrashing about and arms clutching with a futile weakness against the dragon's powerful jaws. He could feel the tongue pressing against the back of his neck and powerful throat muscles sucking at his muzzle. The teeth held him in place, but were curved back just enough that he couldn't slide out, only slide in deeper, so every movement made him jerk and slide into the dragon's gullet. It was awkward for him, as his neck was arched upward so that he was practically staring down the gullet of his friend due to the glowing orange fluid that Dolus secreted, only this wasn't the kind of ravenous hunger he wanted to be victim to.
Before he could even think about mounting any sort of offense or defense, he felt himself being lifted up straight with head down in dragon throat and feet held up high, gravity and the sucking feeling of tongue and throat muscles undulating was slowly pulling him down. The dragon's maw kept opening as Dolus reached forward, digging teeth into Vinn's thighs as the tongue slipped between his legs to wrap up and pull him down.
Just like that, Vinn felt himself sliding down with one heady lurch. He felt the tongue wrap around his legs and tail, slipping into his slit for added grip. Right as the tongue retracted inside, the last of Vinn's torso disappeared into the powerful tube of flesh that was was Dolus' gullet. The dragon closed his mouth tight, putting pressure on Vinn enough that his legs and tail slipped down his gullet like a thick noodle or a snake being slurped up.
Vinn felt the muscular contractions of the flesh slide over him as he fell into his friend's belly. He was still holding his breath, not sure if the potion had taken effect yet so he didn't want to risk attempting any inhalations. He could hold his breath for a solid 3-5 minutes depending on how excited he was or how much energy he was exerting; he knew that once those teeth were buried in his flesh, he wasn't getting out. Dolus was no snake, but he had enough ravenous tendencies to not give up on a meal once he'd tasted flesh. That was just a basic element of being a dragon.
So he waited it out, holding his breath and remaining as calm as he could given the circumstances as he slid deeper and deeper down the dragon's gullet, eventually resting in the belly and curling up in a ball as the muscles contracted and relaxed around him. He could feel the heartbeat throbbing against the side of his head as a steady groan and gurgle emanated around him from below. The fluids that were around him squished between his legs, tail, arms, neck, and fin, but didn't burn or make him itchy. He still wasn't certain, but he was growing increasingly assured that the potion had altered the gastro-intestinal environment enough to make it safe for temporary habitation.
After waiting a moment or two, enjoying the gentle palpitations around him while he held his breath, he finally gave in and let himself take in a deep inhalation, feeling the thin liquid slide down his own gullet and through his nostrils, sending a sharp pain through his body for only a moment before instilling a sense of calmness and serenity in him.
He was lucky this time. The potion had taken, and at least for now he'd be safe, as long as Dolus was able to break the hypnotism and escape. Unfortunately, It was evident that wasn't the case here and Vinn may have been in more trouble than he'd bargained for. Ah well, at least he was comfortably resting in a dragon friend's belly!
Dolus, however, wasn't doing so well. Right after Vinn's tail disappeared into his throat, Belinda broke the spell and let him have his freedom and lucidity back. Since he didn't remember anything that happened when under her control, he had no idea that Vinn was resting in his belly; furthermore, Vinn's serenity failed to stir up any reaction in the dragon, so he just stood in place for an awkward moment of silence before he realized a powerful, dextrous tail was wrapped around the base of his knot, tugging on his cock.
Feeling a bit shy and confused, he tried to pull away from the tail, lowering his own and pushing his thighs together, but that just amplified the pleasure. Still groggy, he tried to muster some sort of inquiry, but he was silenced by Belinda leaning in close to press her snout to his, flicking his tongue into his maw as she held his cheeks. Each of her snake-tendrils arched forward to look at him, eyes glowing a gentle orange, as opposed to the aqua from before.
He had no idea that the tongue that was darting in and out of his maw wasn't a kiss, but his attacker smell-tasting the remnants of Vinn on his tongue and teeth. It was a little awkward, but Dolus found himself growing oddly complacent about the whole situation. Deep down inside he was genuinely frightened at what was going on, as he only regained flashing hints of memory of Belinda's attack from before his hypnotism, but a part of his mind was repressing those aggressive outbursts and letting her rub her snout against his.
The dragon didn't even flinch when she nuzzled at him, letting each of her snake-tendrils take a gentle nip at his cheek and neck. It didn't hurt like he thought it would, but then again he was finding he barely felt anything as he started to go numb. In fact, he barely even noticed when Belinda pressed her snout up against his again, this time opening her maw to clamp her teeth down against his flesh. He could see it, he acknowledged the predicament he was in, but it felt fake to him, like an illusion or dream.
He didn't flinch or react at all as she pressed forth, jaw bones spreading wide and relaxing to slide over his skull, occasionally clamping down with her powerful muscles to regain her angle so she could open wide and push again.
The massive naga made quick work of Dolus, finding absolutely no resistance from him even though he was thicker than she was. Her jaw bones detached and spread wide, the malleable tendons stretching like rubber to slide her saliva-lubricated throat over him. Had he resisted, his rows of sharp fins would have pierced her throat flesh, but her spell and venom rendered him complacent.
Dolus could easily feel the flesh sliding over him, punctuated by a series of needlepoint teeth clamping down on his neck, shoulders, spine, and eventually wings, but it felt more to him like floating in a thick, viscous pool in the hot springs filled with lubrication. It was actually quite arousing, and he barely even noticed that his member was at full mast, still being idly squeezed by her tail.
Belinda just kept swallowing, absorbing more of the dragon into her ravenous throat. Her jaw continued to stretch as she struggled to stuff Dolus' Vinn-filled belly through her open maw. She was able to, and once that thickest part slid through, the rest only took a tightening of her maw and immediate throat muscles. Once the hips passed the relatively tight passage of her body beneath her breasts, she just laid back and let gravity slide her meal down with one easy gulp.
Dolus had a wide grin on his face as the soft flesh squeezed him tight. The combination of numbness and the pressure of belly muscles clamping around him made him feel like he was floating in space, and the utter darkness of the cave and her belly let him slip into something of a dream state, the bulge in his belly growing tighter and tighter as the flesh contracted one last time to see him slip through the esophagus into her belly.
Vinn was definitely feeling the pressure as well, as he was in a dragon belly that was furthermore forced into a gorgon belly. Both he and Dolus remained calm and complacent, oddly comfortable with their predicament. It would have been easy to panic, but Vinn's lungs were filled with a special fluid designed to put him in a sated of contented lucidity, and Dolus was under a gentle spell combined with the effects of the gorgon's cocktail of venoms.
Belinda inhaled deep and laid back against a rocky outcropping in the cavern, getting a glance outside at the raging storm as she stared at the gently undulating bulge in her midsection. A devious grin curled up the corners of her maw for a moment as she relocated her jaw bones and gave a gentle yawn. Once she was happy, she rolled over onto her belly and slithered back to the hind end of the cave, struggling to bring the massive bulge of dragon in through the tiny hole she'd emerged from.
Just as the last of the tail disappeared into her den, the last embers of the magma-fire sputtered out and the soft molten rock turned black and hard.
